MTHFR

• My MTHFR test was done in 2011 and it was negative. When I went to get tested again, they stated they wouldn’t run it because it was negative in the past. What is your opinion?
• Immediately after having my daughter, I had a blood clot that required blood thinners. I also had another blood clot that I had to take Warfarin for. I do have the MTHFR mutation. Do you have any recommendations to reduce the risk of another blood clot?
• Can I take Rootcology MTHFR Pathways long term, even if I do not know if I have the gene mutation?
• My MTHRF test showed that I was heterozygous for the A1298C variant, and the other one was not identified. Does that mean I don't have a methylation problem and don't need to be on a special type of folic acid?
• With the MTHFR gene, do I need to not eat certain foods due to concern regarding metals, such as almonds due to copper?
• What are the other genes, apart from HLA-DR3 and HLA-DR5, that are responsible for the development of Hashimoto's? Does it make sense to test for them at all?
• Can miscarriage be related to the MTHFR gene, or just to the lack of thyroid hormone?
• What else should I keep in mind or worry about now as I know I have the MTHFR gene mutation?
• What is MTHFR?
• Does having the MTHFR gene mutation mean that I was genetically predisposed to acquire Hashimoto's, once the conditions were right for it?
